Autumn Term 1 - Lightning Speed - Exchanging Ideas
Our topic is “Lightning Speed – Exchanging Ideas’
During the first part of this term, we will be asking the question, ‘How do people stay connected?’ We’ve been discovering how communication has changed over time, how computers communicate and how we, as humans, exchange ideas. So far, we have been practicing Morse-code, used semaphores flags to send messages to each other and even learned to count to 10 using binary!
Autumn Term 1 - Viking Warrior
“Viking Warrior” is a competency-based thematic unit with a history focus, telling the legendary story of Ragnar Lothbrok. He is a Viking “sea lord” who, according to his very famous saga, invaded the ancient Kingdom of Frankia and then the British Isles over 1000 years ago. He is known for wearing “hairy trousers”, which protected him on his adventures.
